I have been told that a few of my recent posts have been more on the negative side of life, so here is a more light-hearted one.  Today’s post is about dreams…

A few years back, I was sitting with some of my roommates talking about the future and we starting talking about money.  I made the comment that I wanted to be so rich that I could eat beef jerky everyday.  What does this tell you about me?  1) I have simple dreams 2)  I love beef jerky and 3)  I don’t ever need to make THAT much money.

Sometimes when I am buying a high-priced item like a $1100 airline ticket to Taiwan, a new laptop computer, or even something smaller like new brakes for my motorcycle I think about the cost in terms of beef jerky.  A plane ticket, or 523 2oz individually packed Jack Links beef steak jerky, or 137 packages of Tillamook beef steak nuggets, teriyaki or original.  Mmmmm…  I wish I had some right now.

I figure I need about $1000 dollars a year for my jerky budget, to be content.  (Although I think I may die from heart failure first.)  That would make me happy.  (Jerky, not heart failure.)

Now you know what I want for my birthday :)
